November 2015: I have often been asked

Writer: Penny BurdettPenny Burdett

how I make and design my knitwear, so I am posting these pictures to show you part of the process…

The tops are made in a beautiful silky viscose yarn, on the knitting machine seen in the background in the shop. These yarns are specially dyed for me in Italy …

Work in progress...  ...the final result


Newly designed mohair boucle coat

…and this is one of my new knitted Autumn coats in a fine kid mohair/boucle mix, using my particular blend of yarns and colours.


The punch cards are my own designs - I have designed more than 350 to date over the nearly thirty years I have been in business!


And as for my garment shapes I am now up to design number 270….


Of course I only use a few each season and sometimes I resurrect some of my originals!

So if you want to buy a special Xmas present for someone you love or just for yourself, my garments not only look beautiful, but are locally produced in high quality yarns, and last for years, so please come and have a peruse..
